Japan is already promoting the standardization of hydrogen station-related products by actively submitting proposals to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). By considering international standardization in parallel with future technological development as well as corporate and market trends, we will promote the smooth market introduction of technologies that will be Japan's strength in order to capture the hydrogen- related market, which is estimated to be 270 trillion yen in 2050. For example, studies will be conducted to standardize hydrogen filling methods for large-scale mobility, equipment necessary for transporting liquefied hydrogen, and methods for measuring CO2 emissions during hydrogen production in order to establish an internationally consistent definition of clean hydrogen. Moreover, considering also the viewpoint of stable supply of hydrogen and export of infrastructure, by strengthening of relations with resource-rich countries, not only in terms of fossil fuels, but also those with high potential in renewable energy, and by active development of countries of demand, the government will lead establishment of stable, flexible and transparent international hydrogen market. In promoting such international collaboration, we will make maximum use of the Japan-led hydrogen ministerial conference, while also cooperating with the International Energy Agency (IEA). In addition, there will be sufficient collaboration with fields that utilize hydrogen in their value chains, such as ammonia and carbon recycling.

Participation in various Research programs regarding the implementation of CSP units, solar desalination, production of hydrogen from RES

To promote environmentally acceptable commuting and company-related mobility, the Austrian Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management, together with the Austrian Federal Economic Chamber in co-operation with three large enterprises, carried out a model project for "Transport Demand Management for Companies" which have shown encouraging results (e.g. -17% emissions). The following measures, mainly related to energy efficiency improvement, have been implemented: information events, information via internet, special travel offer, improved booking possibilities for business trips by railways, presentation of car-sharing, purchase of office bicycles, etc.

Allows consumers to make more informed vehicle purchase choices, and to place an appropriate value on fuel economy.
